Who Owns The Rights To No One Lives Forever? No One Seems To Know
When it comes to shooters, Monolith had a good run — Blood, FEAR, Shogo, Condemned… just to name a few. Then there’s No One Lives Forever with its compelling protagonist Cate Archer. So, uh, why haven’t we seen a reboot, or even a re-release of the original games? It might be because no one’s sure who owns the IP.
